I've been trying to log in to talossa.com for a while now-tried resetting passwords, no luck. Maybe I can get a new user id?

5 votes cast so far!
If anybody knows citizen Bernardo Proner, can you ask him to get in touch, either by PM or at 474@talossa.ca? I am unfortunately getting a bounceback on his email address.
Any feedback on the system would be great too. I think it pretty user friendly and once I figured it out it was easy enough to set up an election, but there is a nominal cost. Might even be a good backup for national elections in the unlikely case of a catastrophe.

Voting has started in the Senechal election. Voting will continue until 23.59 on 20th April 2016.
There is only one candidate: Glüc da Dhi
Note that I hve not used BallotBin, as it doesn't seem to be working. I have instead used OpaVote, so check your spam folder carefully.
Any problems, plese let me know. I am however on vacation, so I cannot promise to reply before Monday. Happy voting!

Email sent this evening! One of you must want to give Glüc a run for his money! ;-)
Why am I getting this email (again)? You are receiving this email because you are a citizen of the Sovereign Province of Cézembre, and we hope that you will consider becoming a candidate in the forthcoling election for our provincial governor, the Sénéchal. The election itself will be held from the 6th to 20th April, and you will receive information on how to vote in a future message.
Any citizen of Cézembre may nominate him or herself as a candidate up to 10.59pm CEST on 6th April This email will explain how to go about it. A contested election will be fun, and will show those other lesser provinces what a real Talossan province looks like. Your conducting office is not above begging.
What does the Sénéchal do? According to the provincial constitution, the Sénéchal is responsible for chairing the provincial legislature, (l'Etats), organising our provincial elections, and keeping citizens informed about what's going on in Cézembre.
How do I become a candidate? You can reply to this email, or you can send a personal message to Inxheneu Crovâ (http://talossa.proboards.com/user/654) via Wittenberg . You can also publicly declare yourself a candidate on the Cézembre provincial forum (http://talossa.proboards.com/board/8/zembre). As a candidate you may choose to appoint a representative to act as an election observer. Appointing a representative is not mandatory, but if you choose to do so he or she cannot also be a candidate for Sénéchal.
Has anyone stepped forward already? At the moment we have only one declared candidate, and at least one more will allow us to make a race of it. Do it for Cezembre!

I actually used a mailing list service called TinyLetter. Perhaps a mistake since everybody seems to treat it as spam. I will resend with boring old bcc then.

ETT is alwaus looking for new contributors-if you are interested please send a PM to me, Inxheneu Crovâ. No deadlines, and you can be as long-winded as you like (something I've happily taken advantage of-so should YOU!)

I am still awaiting access to the voter list in the Database. Marti-Pair Furxheir (Marti-Pair Furxheir S.H.), can you arrange access today, as previously requested?

As conducting officer for the forthcoming elections, I would like to announce the following:
Election dates. The nomination phase of the election will start on 30 March 23:00 CEST. (UTC +2) and end on 06 April 22:59 CEST. Voting will start on 06 April 23:00 CEST (UTC +2) and end 20 April 22:59 CEST.
How to vote. The election will be conducted using an online automated secret ballot. After the polls open you will receive an email containing further instructions on how to vote. The election will be conducted using a preferential ballot, which means you will be asked to rank the candidates. The outcome will be determined using the IRV method. There may be a slight delay at the start of the election, but if you do not receive your ballot within an hour or more of the start of the election, please contact the conducting officer by replying to the email or sending a personal message on Witt to Inxheneu Crovâ.
Standing for office. All adult (age 14 and over) citizens of Cézembre are entitled to run in the election as a candidate. To register as a candidate, you can reply to this mail, send a personal message on Witt to Inxheneu Crovâ or publicly announce your candidacy on Witt. This can be done at any time before 06 April. Candidates who have announced themselves publicly before the start of the nomination phase are considered registered unless otherwise mentioned.
Candidate representatives. If you are running as a candidate in this election, you are allowed to appoint any citizen of Talossa to supervise the conduct of the elections. A candidate representative will have to request the Chancery for legal access to the Cézembrean electoral database. Candidate representatives are strictly bound by provincial (A8: The Sénéchal Elections Act) and national (El Lexhatx D 8.5 & 8.6) law and are not allowed to communicate with anyone (including their candidate) about the email adresses of Cézembrean citizens or use these for campaign purposes. Neither are candidate representatives allowed to stand as a candidate in the elections.
The office of Sénéchal. The duties of the Sénéchal include the conduct of votes in l'Etats, the conduct of elections and providing citizens with information about the province. Further information about the legal duties of the Sénéchal can be found in the Cézembrean administrative guide on the Cézembrean subforum on Witt.
If you have any question or complaint about the elections you can reply to the announcement email, contact Inxheneu Crovâ on Witt or post in the relevant thread on Witt.
Inxheneu Crovâ, conducting officer for the April 2016 Sénéchal elections.
Note once I have access to the Cezembre section of the Chancery Database, I will also send an email announcement. In the meantime please let Cezembreans of your acquaintance know about the election.
